its just a part of evolution. with apps growing as it is and the demand for streaming video content over the air, carriers have no choice but to move forward with 4g. in sprints case with the mifi, having a 3g and at best 2mps connection isnt going to cut it since you can connect 5 lappys to it. but the bigger picture is, dare i say it, the carriers would eventually want you the consumer to replace your home isp and go with their 4g service because it is or will be fast enough for you to ditch your cable or dsl service..... thats my take...
